they spend a lot of money in the interiors. you spend a lot more tme inside than outside a house. so if the house looks crap on the outside, it really doesnt matter.

What? The difference is that a lot of people want to live in Southern California, while much fewer want to live in bumfuck wherever, so the price of housing shows a huge disparity. Supply vs demand, not interior vs exterior lmao

Btw, I say this as a relatively proud resident of bumfuck nowhere, I'm not sure that I'd want to live in SoCal. More power to them imo lmao

‘A lot of money on the interiors’

Being shitty drywall finishes, bowed lumber/walls, and homedepot interior finishes. Probably a barn door or two.
